Think those barcode tattoos we used to see in the movies were just a fantasy? Think again, Somark Innovations has tested a special ink that changes pattern with each injection of the needle. A proprietary device that operates at a high frequency has been able to pick up the distinguishing tattoos on cows, mice and rats from as far as a meter away. It looks like Somark’s next step after raising enough cash flow to set this up with ranchers/farmers is the armed forces.

So instead of inflicting the pain upon yourself to represent your armed services branch it’ll be mandatory in the future. So don’t even think about going AWOL! They will find you, oh yes they will.
